I'm a senior data scientist with a multidisciplinary engineering background spanning chemicals, renewable energy, and aerospace (I'm ready to adapt to a new industry if necessary!). Past projects have included abnormal event detection in chemical and energy systems, optimization, and signal processing and classification. I'm ready to take on any problem, in any industry, big or small, in data science, machine learning, forecasting, optimization, statistics, and any sort of modeling.

I can do full time employment if you have big problems, or contracts if you only have a few little problems. I'm comfortable with developing and maintaining cloud-based, containerized, ETL services.

the new way all these online services suck

“results from a population-based sample of Norwegians followed for almost three decades, from adolescence into midlife (N = 2215).”

Nice! Largish sample size and 3 decades of following the subjects around! I wonder what else this group is learning.

The conclusion makes sense. When you’re by yourself too much your mind can get stuck going in circles without somebody to bounce ideas off of.

There’s correlation, but not causation. It’s also possible that people who are already conspiracy minded tend to be lonely because those personality traits are off-putting to others.

paranoia and conspiratorial thinking does not lend itself to trusting others, so could go either way. e.g. paranoid people do not feel safe getting close with people.

"Randomly following people creates conspiracy paranoia".

I wonder if the article itself was written by an AI. The style seemed strange to me.

+1, I enjoyed that talk. He showed a diagram of the Artemis mission plan and said, “Does this make sense!?”

He also referred to a publication NASA created after Apollo titled “What made Apollo a Success” which is good reading: https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/19720005243/downloads/19...

“They gave you the playbook!” Lots of stuff that I’m glad somebody stood up and told the Artemis engineers and managers.

From your link;

“Near the solstice, one pole faces the Sun continuously and the other faces away, with only a narrow strip around the equator experiencing a rapid day–night cycle, with the Sun low over the horizon. On the other side of Uranus's orbit, the orientation of the poles towards the Sun is reversed. Each pole gets around 42 years of continuous sunlight, followed by 42 years of darkness.”

Very different from Earth! Wow.

Twain’s escape West is an entertaining memoir! He did a little bit of everything and accumulated some great (if a bit tall) tales. I remember it has the story of his first stand up comedy act, including a description of some people he paid to sit in the front row and laugh at everything. Getting scammed, getting lost, a gold prospector who worked with a cat, and a great story about a goat… “Roughing It” has it all.

I switched from spammy weather apps and other sites to just using the NOAA years ago! The maps are basic but show me what I need as well!

My tax dollars at work! I’m very pleased.

With all the lawyers in this country you’d think one of them on the train would use their hours long delay to assemble a law suit against the freight rail companies. What an insulting deal for taxpayers!
